7. New Years Eve Party Horn Photo Props
For some super fun photos, why not try these party horn props by “DIY Candy”. They would be great for the kids, but who says they have to be ‘just’ for the kids?
I know a lot of adults who would have fun with these once a party gets into full swing. They are the perfect way to make some ‘noise’ over the new years celebrations.
8. New Years Eve Blow Horns
Would you prefer a blow horn that is a bit more sparkly? These DIY blow horns by “Love The Day” would be perfect for the occasion.
This kind of decoration is also perfect to leave scattered around so people can pick them up and use them whenever they wish.
9. New Years Eve Poppers
You certainly can not bring in the new year without some party poppers, but rather than go with the store bought ones, why not make your own this year.
This easy tutorial by “Organized 31” will show you exactly how you can make them for your party and you get them looking exactly as you want them to.
10. Champagne Balloon Poppers
A super fun way to mark midnight is with these champagne balloon poppers by “Dukes and Duchesses”.
At the stroke of midnight you can pop the balloon and then drink the champagne. How much fun is that!
11. Kiss Me Kits
One of these kiss me kits by “Shaken Together Life” is a must for the stroke of midnight. You have everything you could possibly need all in the one bag.
This is such a cute and fun idea.
